                                        Preventing Kidnapping

                Kidnapping is the unlawful carrying away by force and incarceration of a person against his will. It is a criminal offense.

                25% of children are abducted by  strangers usually men. Most abducted children are female and in their teens. Approximately 2000 missing children we reported in the United States.

                Guardians can never be prepared for kidnappings but it is wise to take note of key information about their children such as height, weight, eye color. A recent photograph would be helpful. It is also wise to make sure custody papers are prepared. Other documents that can be very important are medical and dental records.

                It is also prudent to never leave the kids unattended. Choosing caregivers and people who have contact with the children is also perceptive. Set boundaries about places the children can go. Supervise kids' internet interactions.

                Teach kids to be cautious. Train them to identify danger and to choose safe options. Teach them the basics on to how to avoid and getaway from uncomfortable and dangerous situations. Discipline the children to never accept gifts from people they don't know. Educate the kids about how they can say and call for help if someone suspicious is making them uneasy. It is also best to make sure that children memorize their names and/or names of the family members, address and phone number, and make sure they can identify homes and establishments they can go to for help.

                It is safe say that precautionary measures are part of responsible parenting.
